Following reaction is involved in above system
HOCl(aq)  ↔  H+(aq) + OCl-<span>(aq)
</span>OCl-(aq) + H2O(l)  ↔ HOCl(aq) + OH-<span>(aq)
</span>
Now, if the system is obeys 1st order kinetics we have
K  = [OCl-][H+<span>]/[HOCl]   ............. (1)
</span>∴ [HOCl-] / [OCl-] = [H+] (1 / 3.0 * 10-8<span>)   ............. (2)
</span>
and now considering that system is obeying 2nd order kinetics, we have
K  = [OH-][HOCl-] / [OCl-] ................. (3<span>)
</span>Subs 2 in 3 we get
K = [OH-][H+] (1 / 3.0 * 10-8<span>)
</span>we know that, [OH-][H+] = 10<span>-14

</span>∴K = 3.3 * 10<span>-7
</span>
Thus, correct answer is e i.e none of these

Answer:

D

3.5 * 10^6

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the the k-value for the reaction of HOCl with OH- given Ka value for HOCl

Firstly, we write the dissociation equation for HOCl

This is as follows;

HOCl ——> H+ + OCl-

Now, we write an expression for Ka

Ka = [H+][OCl-]/HOCl = 3.5 * 10^-8

Now, we write an equation for the reaction of HOCl and OH- ;

HOCl + OH- —-> OCl- + H2O(l)

The K value expression for this can be written as;

K = [OCl-]/[HOCl][OH-]

= [H+][OCl-]/[HOCl] * [1/[H+][OH-]

= ka * 1/Kw = 3.5 * 10^-8 /(1 * 10^-14) = 3.5 * 10^6

How many moles of water are produced from 15 moles of oxygen?
Grace [21]

Answer:

30 moles

Explanation:

Water is H2O, meaning there is 2 Hydrogen atoms and 1 Oxygen atom. Oxygen is O2, because it is a diatomic molecule. (Hydrogen is also a diatomic molecule, so H2)

The equation, balanced, would have to be: 2H2 + O2 -----> 2H2O

I multiply 15 moles O2 by the molar ratio of (hydrogen/oxygen)

15 mol. O2 *  (2 mol. H2/1 mol O2) = 30 moles of water
